These coins are often received as individual loose items, having been separated by a normal shipping process, regardless of whether they were contained in a plastic or paper cylinder (intended only to hold a roll of coins in a stacked attitude). An exception to the unacceptable plastic or paper container rule is the rectangular roll holder designed to resist forces subjected when laid on side.</b></font></font></p><p><font face="arial"><font size="2"><b><br /></b></font></font></p><p><font face="arial"><font size="2"><b>If one would just consider the physics of the item they&#039;re shipping, (i.e. will the coins being shipped naturally stand in the position of packaging?). I&#039;ve literally shipped hundreds of thousand coins in padded envelopes without ever receiving a complaint of packaging failure, but the coins are shipped flat as rectangular singular coin thickness bundles. The stacked rectangular &quot;bundles&quot; are separated by cardboard interleaves to achieve integrity. </b></font></font></p><p><font face="arial"><font size="2"><b><br /></b></font></font></p><p><font face="arial"><font size="2"><b>A seller can ship the legal First Class postal weight limit allowed, by using the flat bundles in a padded envelope, without generally any concern of&nbsp; package failure, if the rectangular bundle is secured by tape within the envelope. This manner of packaging meets postal regulations, and accomplishes the seemingly apparent seller goal of reduced shipping cost.</b></font></font></p><p><font face="arial"><font size="2"><b><br /></b></font></font></p><p><font face="arial"><font size="2"><b>The response received by the OP, is one virtually identical to those I&#039;ve written as either informative or for future redress of loss, and I believe doesn&#039;t constitute &quot;extortion&quot;, but merely stating the conditions of receipt acknowledgment. </b></font></font></p><p><font face="arial"><font size="2"><b><br /></b></font></font></p><p><font face="arial"><font size="2"><b>If a seller has a condescending inconsiderate response, an eBay/PayPal case is often opened for actual damages, and earned negative feedback is submitted for the seller as a warning to other potential buyers. Most sellers of reasonable intelligence will graciously accept the buyers report, and offer an immediate return shipping payment, and complete refund of funds paid upon receiving the returned damaged shipment. </b></font></font></p><p><font face="arial"><font size="2"><b><br /></b></font></font></p><p><font face="arial"><font size="2"><b>The aforementioned process generally resolves a normal dispute, and in my dealings, will often result in positive feedback for the seller.</b></font></font></p><p><font face="arial"><font size="2"><b><br /></b></font></font></p><p><font face="arial"><font size="2"><b>Just an experienced report!! </b></font></font>:thumb:[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
